2006 BMW K1200S Running When Parked

1964 Trike Running When Parked Project
A custom-made, one-of-two-ever-made, running-when-parked trike is, as W.C Fields said, "like an Elephant. It is fun to look at, but I wouldn't want to own one." And like Mert Lawwill said, "finding spare parts is…

1978 Yamaha DT100 Nice At Half The Price

Mystery KTM Running When Parked Purchased From Estate
This is an interesting offering. The seller doesn’t know what model KTM it is and I don’t either. What I do know is that for an old dirt bike, it doesn’t appear to be too…
Ran-When-Parked 1974 Yamaha DT250 Two-Stroker
Everyone who piloted one of these has a great memory of riding it. They were low-saddle-height bikes with nice power and a very balanced feel on the road or trail. It was an adventure bike…
